Adam Lambert’s new album cover for his debut album, For Your Entertainment.

I have heard mixed reviews from fans on this, and I’m pretty impartial to it. Besides being airbrushed to the Nth power, I don’t think it’s so bad. Super glam, but that’s why they call him Glambert, right?

Ellen Degeneres is American Idol’s New Judge!

Spicy — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 04:13:17 +0000

Ellen Degeneres will be the new judge on American Idol, it has been confirmed.

She won’t start her new job until after the audition period. During that time there will be a slew of other celebs including Shania Twain and Victoria Beckham helping to judge.

Ellen insists that she is not giving up her job on the Ellen Degeneres Show, instead, she says, she’ll have a “day and a night job.” The deal has reportedly been under wraps for a couple of weeks. She says:

“I’ve been dying to tell everyone. It’s just been so hard to keep it a secret and we just finally got the OK and I’m so excited. It is going to be so much fun.”

She adds that she is a huge fan of American Idol, never missing an episode.

“Hopefully I’m the people’s point of view because I’m just like you. I sit at home and I watch it. I’m not looking at it in a critical way from the producer’s mind. I’m looking at it as a person who is going to buy the music and is going to relate to that person.”

I love this. I think Ellen will definitely add more to the show than Paula. Ellen has a lot of charisma and has such a great sense of humor that I think she will actually make the show more fun to watch. Paula had the same responses for people every year, you know, “You are an inspiration. Your confidence is great but this competition isn’t for you.” And she just wasn’t very funny either, except to laugh at. I’m just saying. The whole ‘Paula vs. Simon’ bit got pretty stale.

I’m actually looking forward to the new judges this year. Because to be honest with you, it’s probably the only reason I’ll watch!

Constantine Maroulis Gets Ass Handed to Him

Spicy — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 17:16:06 +0000

Former American Idol contestant Constantine Maroulis was reportedly involved in a bar fight that began after he professed his devotion to Idol judge, Paula Abdul.

The fight broke out at Casio’s G-Shock party Wednesday night at Cipriani Wall Street in New York.

Some random guy, dressed to the nines mind you, randomly attacked Constantine, throwing him to the ground then punching and kicking him. Security finally stepped in, but by that time a little damage had been done.

An eyewitness describes the scenario: “It was hilarious! Constantine got into it with this guy who was probably 6 inches shorter and 60 pounds lighter. The guy body-slammed him and punched him in the face and then just stood up, straightened his tie, and said, ‘Bitch, don’t you ever!’ before walking away. Security didn’t know what to make of this guy. He was so well-groomed in his suit, and he didn’t look like a threat at all. Constantine was so overwhelmed he just sat there on the floor for a few minutes.”

Constantine later posted about it on his Twitter account saying: “It broke up quick, didn’t even know him. Or throw one punch. I don’t mind a fight … but only when it’s fair and I’m looking!”

“I’m fine! Some drunk dude tackled me in the middle of the concert and jumped on me.”

Sadly, there is no video. Heh..

Kelly Clarkson Already Gone VIDEO

Kelly Clarkson ‘Already Gone’ music video

I’m not too into Kelly Clarkson’s music, but I do like her.

She looks gorgeous in her new video, but I couldn’t help but notice that the camera stays away from the full body shots. It reminds me of Heart’s video back in the day where you only saw Ann Wilson’s face, and when you did, it was a quick shot of her body as she was draped in all black.

Kelly is adorable though. Screw the haters, she is more talented than most of the skinny bitches out there.

She died of head, chest and abdominal injuries.

Above is the video of Cohen’s performance, denial by the judges and her rant afterwards.

How sad, what an awful way to die. Police say that the suspect is on the loose and anyone with information should call Carlos Trujillo-Tovar of the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office at 732-929-2027 or Detective Steve Korman of the Seaside Heights Police at 732-973-1800.

David Archuleta’s Dad Busted with a Hooker!

Spicy — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 17:22:42 +0000

David Archuleta’s father, Jeff Archuleta, was busted while soliciting a prostitute at a massage parlor – in UTAH of all places!

The bust went down last January when police performed a raid on the Queens of Reiki in Midvale, Utah. Amazingly enough police actually caught Jeff receiving “services”!

Police Sgt. John Salazar stated: “Two of our detectives went back to that room to stop the activity. Inside they found a female masseuse and male client. At that time an interview ensued and the male client admitted to receiving sexual gratification from the masseuse.”

Archuleta, 41, pleaded no contest and was fined $582.

His lawyer is denying the charges saying he was getting a legitimate massage.

Uh-huh. One with a happy ending!

Kelly Clarkson Weight Piles On

Spicy — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 17:20:01 +0000

Kelly Clarkson seems to be a little bit bigger every time we see her.

Chubby or not, girlfriend can sing. However, she isn’t really good about dressing herself!

The clothes I usually see her in are ALL WRONG for her body type. They just make her look all that much bigger.

Kel, buck up and get a stylist, or at least get a really good girlfriend who is honest with you to tell you what you look like before you go onstage in something like this! Burn the vest Kelly, burn it!

Gene Simmons: “Adam Lambert Should Shut Up About His Sexual Preferences”

Spicy — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 16:09:34 +0000

Gawd I hate Gene Simmons.

The prick who can’t get enough of himself – or his money – made an appearance on Fox News and surprisingly shut up about himself long enough to discuss somebody else. That person was Adam Lambert. Oh, lucky Adam.

Adam performed with KISS earlier this year on American Idol.

After listening to Gene ramble on about himself for sometime, the interviewer asks him what is was like performing with Adam on the show. Gene takes immediate offense, correcting her, “How was it like for him to perform with us, you mean?”

Typical Gene. He then goes on to say how he thinks Adam will do well in the industry but adds,

“…but mostly he should shut up about his sexual preferences, we, America, and the rest of the world, doesn’t really doesn’t care. I mean, if the story becomes ‘I prefer farm animals,’ it’s like, who cares? Be quiet about what you do indoors and go sing.”

The interviewer cracked me up. She handled Gene quite well. After Gene said what he had to say about Adam, he says “You agree with me!”

She responded with: “I agree with everything you have to say because you’re the guest on my show!”

Ha! Telling it like it is.

As repetitive and narcissistic as Gene is, you have to give him credit for slipping those KISS plugs in a billion times per interview. In that short amount of time, he managed to plug his reality show, a film he is producing, an upcoming KISS album, a 60-city tour, his marketing company that is involved with Indy Car racing, KISS perfume, and even KISS caskets.

Gah, STFU already!

Anyhow, Adam is sure getting everyone’s panties in a bunch. By everyone I mean big gnarly rock stars like Rob Zombie. Oh wait, he’s not big, he’s like 5′2″. Serious, and that was in outrageously tall platform boots..

Rob took a hit at Lambert the other day, saying he was nothing compared to the likes of, say, Mick Jagger:

“I’m sure Adam can f–king sing 10 times better than Mick Jagger, but who gives a s–t. He ain’t f–king Mick Jagger. You know what I mean? There are probably a million guitar players in the world better than Keith Richards, but they ain’t f–king Keith Richards!”

True, but he’s good enough to have you all talking about him!

Adam Lambert Rolling Stone [PHOTOS & VIDEO!]

Spicy — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 18:08:50 +0000

Adam Lambert graces the cover of the latest issue of Rolling Stone, because, you know, Kris Allen just isn’t really RS material, is he?

The cover is just a tad suggestive with the snake pointing straight to Adam’s c*ck, don’t you think? Not that it’s a bad thing. Heh.

Finally, Adam opens up about his sexuality – yes, he is gay you morons – in the mag. He says point blank, “I don’t think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I’m gay.

“I’m proud of my sexuality. I embrace it. It’s just another part of me.”

Gay or not, he’s one HOT bitch!

Check out video from Adam’s Rolling Stone photo shoot:
